- Abstract: We present an experimentally viable approach to demonstrating quantum
non-locality in a matter wave system via a Rarity-Tapster interferometer using
two $s$-wave scattering halos generated by colliding helium Bose-Einstein
condensates. The theoretical basis for this method is discussed, and its
suitability is experimentally quantified. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate
an interferometric visibility of $V=0.42(9)$, corresponding to a maximum
CSHS-Bell parameter of $S=1.1(1)$, for the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH)
version of the Bell inequality, between atoms separated by $\sim 4$ correlation
lengths. This constitutes a significant step towards a demonstration of a Bell
inequality violation for motional degrees of freedom of massive particles and
possible measurements of quantum effects in a gravitationally sensitive system.

A quantum simulation of magnetism in trapped-ion systems makes use of the crystal vibrations to mediate pairwise interactions between spins.
These interactions can be accounted for by a long-wavelength relativistic theory, where the phonons are described by a coarse-grained Klein-Gordon field.
We show that thermal effects, which can be controlled by laser cooling, can unveil this flow through the appearance of thermal masses in interacting QFTs.

We show that the asymmetry may emphincrease as a result of a emphdecrease of coherence inside a degenerate subspace.

A wave function exposed to measurements undergoes pure state dynamics.
For many-particle systems, the competition of these different elements of dynamics can give rise to a scenario similar to quantum phase transitions.
A key finding is that this field theory decouples into one set of degrees of freedom that heats up indefinitely.
